Hi Dave,
You might want to hunt down Alan in Portland.
He's had Thirsty for a long time.
With any luck he will even answer your original
question about a tiller equipped 35 mk-3.

Rob,
Thanks for that link - I'll definitely take a
look. We own a little trailer sailor at
present (Potter 19), so this will be the first
keelboat purchase for me. I've done a fair
amount of sailing (passages from Portland to the
San Juans) with friends on their boats, some
sailing classes and a couple of cruises in the San Juans/Gulf Islands. Â Â
We currently live in Oregon, but I'm in the
process of retiring and we've purchased a house
in Port Angeles, so if I do buy a boat, it will
be based out of Port Angeles. Â Â I've been
looking for something from 30' to 35' feet, so
this is at the long end. I originally had been
reluctant to consider these C&C boats because of
the cored hulls, but I guess I'm somewhat
getting over that phobia, although I'll definitely be getting it surveyed. Â
Cheers,
Dave

Dave, welcome to the C&C list. You didn't say
if this was your first boat (I am betting it is
not)......if you are, then the attached article
and especially the part where it says to become
a boat detective could be useful buying any boat.

However, if you are only looking for specifics
on C&C 35MKIII's, there are several owners on
this list with considerable experience with the 35 MKIII.
Keep the list informed on how you far out. And where do you sail from?

Hello - first post here. I'm in the market
for a boat and will be looking at two different
35 Mkiii tomorrow. One apparently has a
tiller instead of a wheel. Does anyone know
if this was an option on a new boat? I'm
assuming it was probably a later conversion.Â
I've already been advised on checking for leaks
at hull/deck joint and portlights, as well as
mast step area and deck delamination/core rot.Â
If there are any other things to be looking for
let me know. I'll definitely be getting a
survey if it gets that far, but trying to screen out any major issues.Â
Thanks,
Dave Castor
